CHINESE LADS' GOOD IN RUNNING..
Some good running was sten" st' the 13th Annual Athletic Meeling of the Yaumati Government School held at King's Park, yesterday afternoon. All the boys showed great keenness and several close finishes were wit nessed by a large number of past and present pupfis, including many viel
tars.“
At the conclusion of the many events, Mr., C. Mycock, the head master, before asking Mrs. G. P. de Martin to distribute the prizes said he was aure all would agree with him that it was a very successful day's sport. He wished to thank Mrs, do "Martin for eo kindly consenting to give away the prizes, and also Messrs.. Ho Yan-tak and Sung On-wing, the two teachers responsible for all the

After the reports of the various branch aneieties had been prosent- ad by their respective secretaries the chairman, addressing the meeting, said that he found hima- self in a singularly happy post- tion for he felt that he was now enjoying the fruit of his labours, It had been his great ambition to ste established in Kowloon a living Church, imbued with the will to live and grow, and endowed with the power to organise fis own life and growth.

It was an inestimable privilege to help even in a small degree to bring into being a living Chris-
Church. There was... tian reason why they should not all share in that feeling of profound satisfaction over "something ac- complished, something done," for they had all worked together under Divine guidance. It night be that they did not all realize what a genuine marvel had been accomplished.
The following offers were elected for the ensuing year:
Hon. Secretary, Mr. D. Gow; Hon. Treasurer, Rev. Frank Short, Envelope Secretary, Mr. J. Revie; Envelope Stewards, Meskra J. O. Provan and T. Ingram;, Gen- | erai committee, Mesdames Harvey.

Before the election
of Honorary Treasurer, the chairmen announced that Mr. D. F. Warren, who had carried out the duties for the past four years, was retiring owing to his impending departure for Canada. The chairman said that he had carried out his duties

PRIZE GIVING AT PEAK SCHOOL
(Continued from Page 3.)
Question of Discipline. in matters of discipline it is sometimes difficult in a Junior School to find the happy mean be tween repression and too much free- dom. Children, in these parts, who have been brought up by amabs with little regard for the meaning of obedience, require, it would seem, a firmer hand at the outset of their school career, than those in Eng- Iand who have had the advantages of a nursery. On the other hand, a fair amount of freedom does pro- uce a naturalness and spontaneity of conduct which has charm.
